* Suspend `snap` sync tests
why:
Snap needs to be updated. While this is not done, tests are obsolete
and eat up memory resources only
* Suspend rocks DB timing tests
why:
Currently of no use for general test suite.
* Mothballed unused evm code for opportunistic DB handling
why:
Needs to be refactored anyway. Uses hard coded protocol dependencies.
* Update `eth` protocol configuration
why:
+ new upcoming version `eth68`
+ prepare for eth-multi protocol stack support
* Strip the `legacy_` prefix from eth66 compiler flag variable
why:
Being it is an oddity having `eth67_enabled`, `eth68_enabled`, and
`legacy_eth_66_enabled`.
* Providing eth68 stubs
* Fix copyright year
* Fix eth68 stub method name
* Kvt: Update API hooks
* Aristo: Generalised merging snap proofs, now for multiple state roots
why:
This accommodates pre-loading partial tries for unit tests
* Aristo: Update some unit tests
* CoreDb+Aristo: Re-factor tracer
why:
Was bonkers anyway. The main change is that the trace journal is now
kept in a way similar to a transaction layer so that it can predictably
interact with DB transactions.
* Ledger: Debugging helper
* Update tracer unit test applicable for `Aristo`
* Fix copyright year
* Disable `dump()` function as compile time default
why:
This needs to pull in the `rocks_db` library at compile time.
* Static link rocksdb into Nimbus.
* Link in additional compression libraries.
* Support static linking for MacOS.
* Add flag to support disabling rocksdb static linking.
* Static linking is disabled by default. Build nimbus with static linking using: make nimbus_rocksdb_static
* Update nim-rocksdb to latest.
* Remove cruft
* Docu/code cosmetics
* Aristo: Update `forkBase()`
why:
Was not up to the job
* Update/correct tracer for running against `Aristo`
details:
This patch makes sure that before creating a new `BaseVMState` the
`CoreDb` context is adjusted to accommodate for the state root that
is passed to the `BaseVMState` constructor.
* CpreDb+legacy: Always return current context with `ctxFromTx()`
why:
There was an experimental setting trying to find the node with the
proper setting in the KVT (not the hexary tie layer) which currently
does not work reliable, probably due to `Ledger` caching effects.
- The fluffy test vector repo got forked (well, copied rather) to
become the official one under ethereum github org, so we change
to that repo now and archive ours.
- Our repo also stored accumulator / historical_roots, replace
that with a new repo which is only for network configs.
- Several changes needed to be made due to test vectors that got
updated + some of them got changed to / are yaml format instead of
json.
* Aristo: Provide descriptor fork based on search in transaction stack
details:
Try to find the tx that has a particular pair `(vertex-id,hash-key)`,
and by extension try filter and backend if the former fails.
* Cleanup & docu
* CoreDb+Aristo: Implement context re-position to earlier in-memory state
why:
It is a easy way to explore how there can be concurrent access to the
same backend storage DB with different view states. This one can access
an earlier state from the transaction stack.
* CoreDb+Aristo: Populate tracer stubs with real functionality
* Update `tracer.nim` to new API
why:
Legacy API does not sufficiently support `Aristo`
* Fix logging problems in tracer
details:
Debug logging turned off by default
* Fix function prototypes
* Add Copyright header
* Add tables import
why:
For older compiler versions on CI
* CoreDb+Aristo: Fix handler code
* Aristo+Kvt: Remove cruft
* Aristo+Kvt: The function `forkTop()` always provides a single transaction
why:
Previously it provided a single squashed tx only if there were any. Now
it will provide a blind one if there were none.
* Fix Copyright header
* Fix 'value out of range' RangeDefect caused by large/expensive blocks/transactions during DOS period.
* Clear witness cache in AccountCache persist.
* Revert previous fix and force clear cache after processing each block.
* Revert clear cache in process block.
* CoreDb+Ledger: Update logging
why:
Use symbol `api` rather than `ctx` because the latter will be used
as name for particular objects
* CoreDb: Remove cruft
* CoreDb: Remove `TxID` support
why:
It is nowhere used and ugly implemented. The upcoming context layer
will be a cleaner alternative to use, instead should this particular
functionality be needed.
* CoreDb: Rearrange base methods in source code for better reading
* CoreDb+Aristo: Update API closures for better reading & maintenance
* CoreDb: Implement context layer for MPT
why:
On `Aristo` the context layer allows to manage different views on
the same backend database. This is an abstraction of the legacy
hexary trie which can be localised on a particular root nose.
details:
The `ctx` context provides the state (equiv. to state root) of the
database for MPT and account descriptors.
* Fix Copyright headers
why:
Ignoring `nil` objects was handy for a while but eventually led to
lazy programming which in turn led to double destructor calls for
the rocks-db.
* Aristo+Kvt: Fix backend `dup()` function in api setup
why:
Backend object is subject to an inheritance cascade which was not
taken care of, before. Only the base object was duplicated.
* Kvt: Simplify DB clone/peers management
* Aristo: Simplify DB clone/peers management
* Aristo: Adjust unit test for working with memory DB only
why:
This currently causes some memory corruption persumably in the
`libc` background layer.
* CoredDb+Kvt: Simplify API for KVT
why:
Simplified storage models (was over engineered) for better performance
and code maintenance.
* CoredDb+Aristo: Simplify API for `Aristo`
why:
Only single database state needed here. Accessing a similar state will
be implemented from outside this module using a context layer. This
gives better performance and improves code maintenance.
* Fix Copyright headers
* CoreDb: Turn off API tracking
why:
CI would ot go through. Was accidentally turned on.
- Use the new createRpcSigsFromNim for client json-rpc API
- Avoid importing any nimbus/rpc specifics, use only web3 and
fluffy local rpc code
- Adjust tools making use of the client side API
